New Quay walking tour

New Quay was once a sleepy little place with only a smattering of houses around several quiet and discrete coves – the type of place you take note of if you’re a smuggler looking for safe places to land booty!

And then, the New Quay Pier and Harbour Company was formed, and New Quay exploded almost overnight becoming a bustling town!

At the turn of the 20th century, New Quay transformed again when it became the epicentre of the non-conformist revival – coinciding with the rise of socialism, capitalistic and class criticism, and youthful discontent. The ripple effect of this movement was felt all the way in California and India!
